5 CONCLUSION The Korean CHRNA results are aligned with the public health literature which indicates that significant health disparities exist in Asian American subgroups. Low levels of English language proficiency were noted in the Korean community. Rates for routine physical checkups and for certain types of health screenings for cervical cancer and oral/dental health were relatively low in the Korean population surveyed compared to New Yorkers in general. CHRNA survey results also revealed high rates of binge drinking in the Korean population surveyed compared to New Yorkers overall. Health Promotion Developing community-based health promotion and preventive healthcare (such as screening activities) in partnerships with Korean-serving community-based organizations is essential to improving the health and well-being of the Korean community.
